Reflections on "Muscle Testing"

 Over the last several years, my family and I have learned how to "muscle test" questions, and in particular questions of a health related or medical nature. It began when Heidi was still struggling through trying to recover from her bad Multiple Sclerosis flare. We were both skeptical about it at first, but after running a few tests we realized that there was definitely something to it and it could be used with a high degree of reliability. Through using this technique, Heidi, having had her diet growing more and more restrictive over the years because of the seizures that would result if she was wrong, was able to accurately test which foods might be safe for her to ingest and which weren't. With the assistance of this newfound tool, Heidi was able to not only get the M.S. flare under control, but was able to reverse and eliminate the plaques on her brain and spine altogether.
      The idea behind muscle testing is based on the body having its own energy field, sometimes referred to as "chi" or "qi" which reacts with the energy fields of other things either positively or negatively. In addition, the body's energy field will react to a truth or untruth positively or negatively either being strengthened or literally pulled towards the truth, or being weakened and literally repulsed by the untruth. In this way, it is possible to ask and receive answers to yes or no questions with a high degree of reliability.
     There are however some caveats we've learned about this technique, sometimes the hard way, which are well worth reflecting on and pondering. The major caveat to it is that you cannot get a reliable answer to a question where you have an attachment to the answer you get. Your own subconscious will interfere and skew the results to whatever you either think it should be, or whatever you're afraid it might be.
     If you are in a state of fear, conscious or unconscious, or aggression your answers become unreliable and the muscle testing will start delivering gibberish responses where "yes" can be "no" and vice versa. In other words, if you are engaged with or in submission to your own malfunctioning survival responses, the muscle testing doesn't work right and itself malfunctions. Any emotional state which is ultimately rooted in fear or aggression such as despair, anger, or pride results in unreliable answers. In order to receive reliable answers, fear has to be let go of and the practitioner has to shift in the direction of courage, reason, joy, compassion, and ultimately love (not of the romantic variety but of the agape variety). The closer one is to agape (and the farther one is from fear), the more accurate and reliable the answers become.
     And what I have been reflecting on is how much this is similar to what I have been writing about submitting to and cooperating with the Spirit of Christ. The more one does this, the more Jesus Christ manifests within that person, but in order to do this one must disengage from one's own fear, aggression, and bodily cravings. So in the same way, perhaps where muscle testing is concerned, one is not asking the questions of the energy of one's body per se, but one is connecting to the Energy or Spirit of Christ in order to receive information about a thing. And then when one disengages and reverts to the fear and aggression responses of their flesh, they only get wrong or unreliable answers because they have disconnected themselves. And maybe it works this way whether or not one understands the mechanism accurately because every human being has been joined as one with the Spirit of Christ through His birth, death, burial, and resurrection.
     Regardless, it's clear to me at this point that the best path and practice is that of letting go of one's attachments and the fear and aggression they can generate. By letting them go, one can sense and communicate with the Truth more freely, and be able to allow that Truth to express Himself freely through you. The best thing we can do is to remove all obstructions to Him doing this.
